Amplify's next Generator Series project opens Friday, January 18th.
About this Event

Throughout 2024, Amplify’s Alternate Currents cohort members worked to research and develop projects that examine the interplay of public and private spaces by interrogating the boundaries that separate built and natural environments; authorship and ownership; interior truths and external expectations. Themes around embracing uncertainty and playing in the in-between emerged as a critical framework to better understand how justice in the arts might be interpreted, documented, and enacted.


The Reading Room, Amplify’s next Generator Series project, collects printed material Alternate Currents cohort members discussed, considered, and shared with one another over the past year. Hung throughout the gallery-turned-commons, visitors are invited to read, rest, reflect, and borrow printed materials, .


The The Reading Room is free and open to all. After the opening reception on Friday, January 18th, regular gallery hours are by appointment. Please register for a time to visit.

  • Opening Reception: January 18th; 6pm - 9pm
  • Exhibition Dates: January 18th - February 15thth
  • Regular Gallery Hours: Thursdays and Fridays; 1pm - 5pm by appointment



Generator Space is wheelchair accessible and located on a fairly busy street with a decent amount of traffic. Please use crosswalks for safety. Unmetered street parking is available on Vinton Street, 18th Street, and neighborhood streets to the north and west of the space. 


Generator Series programming is presented with support from the Nebraska Arts Council and the Nebraska Cultural Endowment.


About Alternate Currents:

Alternate Currents (AC) is a two-year program designed to support artists and organizers working to thoughtfully challenge dominant systems, forge collaborations, and engage with their communities. An alternative to a conventional MFA, AC cohort members work together to understand how justice in the arts is interpreted, documented, and enacted.

One of only a few programs across the US which prioritizes free access to a cohort learning experience and funding outside larger institutional systems, Alternate Currents brings cohort members together to learn, share resources, publish their work, and organize exhibitions and panel discussions.
